The end of her beloved knights service under legendary Arthur Castus Pendragon's command, approaches and Devnet fears she might lose her friends, the only family she has left, and the love of her life (although both refuse to admit).

"So if we don't get there soon, we lose, right? We lose Merlin and Hera will end the world?" "Camelot will end, Greece will end... Even your own world will be gone." 'You knights are our only hope.' Luna's signing really sold it. If they didn't stop Hera soon, the whole world would end. "Alright. What do we have to do?" ********** As far as the world knows, Camelot and ancient Greece never conflicted. Never associated, never spoke, never interacted. In fact, it would be safe to say that the two worlds didn't even exist at the same time. Until they do. An untold story that changes every story you've ever known. The Knights of Camelot rule as kings and queens, the first since the death of the legendary King Arthur. Sharing the duties among the six of them and under the guidance of the warlock, Merlin, these teenagers travel between Camelot and the modern world, the first time travelers, to protect the land they've adopted as their own. The Goddlets are used to living in a world of their own. As the children of the gods, they are used to getting away with whatever they want. Not used to many changes in their quiet world, they aren't prepared for what comes next. When the Knights and the Goddlets are called together on a quest to save Merlin from the clutches of Hera, the queen of the Greek gods, two very different worlds collide in a race against the clock to save the world. With limited time at their hands and everything they know and love at stake, the Knights and the Goddlets team up to put an end to Hera's destructive reign. The worlds of Camelot and ancient Greece collide in this action-packed book. Classic characters meet new faces in a complete retelling of universes people both know and love. {Entered in the Open Novella Contest under prompt 83: "This assignment requires us to act like adults.

Young Eleanor, the spirited daughter of a humble blacksmith, dreams of a life beyond the confines of her small village, shadowed by the ancient and mysterious Avalon Abbey. Her life is forever altered when she stumbles upon an ancient manuscript hinting at the lost relics of King Arthur. As political tensions rise with the impending crusade called by the king, Eleanor finds herself entangled in a web of intrigue, power struggles, and ancient prophecies. Joining her in this quest is Geoffrey, a young and ambitious squire loyal to his knight, Sir William, who is deeply involved in the political games of the English court. Their destinies intertwine as they navigate through battles, betrayals, and the intricacies of court life, all while the elusive shadows of Avalon whisper of a prophecy that could change the course of history. As Eleanor delves deeper into the mysteries of Avalon, she crosses paths with Lady Isolde, a noblewoman with a secret lineage tied to the legendary Order of the Dragon. Together, they uncover ancient secrets, face formidable adversaries, and strive to protect relics of immense power. Amidst the backdrop of historic events, like the signing of the Magna Carta and the myth of King Arthur, their journey becomes a tale of love, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of truth.
